When Xie Ming heard Liwei's words, she was at loss. How can he twist her words like this?

  She looked at him, she don't have any words against him. But she can't just stay put like this.

  If she stayed silent then, he will think that he won. And she can't let him win like this.

  After saying his part, Liwei looked at her proudly. He knows that she had no words to say in her defense.

  He was thinking that he won this battle.

  A/N: "When this argument turned into a battle?"

  Suddenly, an idea popped in Xie Ming's mind.

  Her expressions became frail and weak. She looked at Liwei innocently and said in a low voice,

  " I am sorry. I just wanted to prepare a delicious meal for you but it turned out to be a total failure." as she said, a tear made it's way to her cheeks.

  Seeing her crying, Liwei got baffled. One moment she was shouting at him and now, She started crying.

  ' Is it mood swings? Is she on her periods?' he thought inwardly. But he can't just ask directly to her. So he kept quiet.

  A/n: "-_-" ' His level of imagination is more than mine.

  Xie Ming looked at the confused and baffled expression of Liwei and smirked inwardly.

  She knew that he took her bait. The only thing she had learned from Xiao Li is to cry when you don't have anything to say.

  In the past, she always pretends to be strong and never cry in front of anyone, but even if Xiao Li was in wrong, Zhao Ming will become the guilty as Xiao Ali starts crying.

  So when she was in loss of words, she used the same trick on Liwei, to see if it works and it did.

  But when she looked at his expression, she felt satisfied. She might have apologized, but she didn't lose the battle.

  Hiding her sly expression, she pretends to be wronged and upset like she was upset about ruining the food.

  Liwei felt bad seeing her tears, after all, she had prepared all of this for him.

  'How could he say, it's bad? He should have just finished everything himself?' he felt bad for not doing it like this and made her feel bad.

  Seeing her big tears, he reached out his hands and held her face in his hands.

  He warmly wiped away her tears with his thumb and said, " Don't cry. I am sorry, okay? I accept that it was my fault to kiss you between the cooking and even complain about the food."

  "Now, stop crying already. If you stop crying, I will do anything for you. If you want, I can even cook for you. What say?" he said while trying to coax her.

  She looked up at him and he was really worried and he was feeling bad.

  Seeing his reaction, Xie Ming also started to feel bad.

  ' I shouldn't have used this trick on Liwei. He is such a good guy, how can I do this to him.'

  Suddenly she felt bad for tricking him. But she can't possibly say that she was not crying, she was just faking.

  So to compensate him, she looked up into his eyes. She held his hands down, that was holding her face.

  He looked at her in confusion, he thought that she doesn't want him to hold her or she was still upset with him.

  But in the next moment, she leaned in and gave him a sweet and gentle kiss on his lips.

  He looked at her in surprise. She kissed him in between their so cold fight.

  After kissing she backed away without giving him a chance to go further.

  He furrowed his brows but she ignored his gaze.

  Then she turned to the dishes on the table, to hide her embarrassment and started eating the salty Hotpot.

  Right now, she can't taste anything. She was so nervous and embarrassed to taste anything.

  On the other hand, Liwei looked at her and started eating the hotpot as well. For him, the salty hotpot had become sweet.

  The sweet taste of Xie Ming's lips is still lingering in his memory. He smiled while eating the hotpot.

  Suddenly he remembered the interview and turned to look at her and asked, " So what did they asked in the interview?"

  Xie Ming paused in her actions when she heard his words. She forgot about that thing.

  She coughed a little and said, " I was meaning to talk to you about it. There is something that I want to tell you. " she said in a serious tone.

  Seeing her serious expression, he put down his spoon and looked at her intently, waiting for her to speak.

  She looked at him and took a deep breath to gather courage.

  " Actually when I meet Tang Nian, she was impressed by my resume`, but" she hesitated before continuing.

  Liwei waited for her to complete as he knows it's not the whole story.

  She continued, " but she said that it's a waste for me to work as an intern only. I have an interest in entertainment and more than that I am beautiful." she said bashfully.

  Liwei looked at the girl who didn't hesitate even a bit before praising herself.

  Xie Ming continued and said," So she said that I should try for acting. She even gave me a script of the movie directed by the most famous Mr Han. Tomorrow is the audition and……"

  Her words were cut in between by Liwei as he said, " What…… What did you say? Acting? You want to work in the entertainment industry? " he said with surprising reaction.

  Seeing his blank face, she gulped in fear. She was scared that he might yell at her, like the arrogant and mean husbands in the dramas.

  But suddenly her wild imagination was broken by his gentle voice," Hmm, Tang Nian has an eye for talent. You're really beautiful." he said in a gentle tone while looking at her.

  Seeing his reaction, she was baffled, ' Did he even hear everything what I said? Or just the beautiful part? She really couldn't tell what kind of CEO is he?'

  ' How can he speak such cringy words at a time like this.'
